You can keep and rewatch Netflix DVDs for as long as you like. iTunes rentals will go *poof* after 24 hours.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Trust my rage
I was thinking about that when I was typing. See, I haven't rented a DVD in years - like maybe 3? I had Netflix for two years and was happy with that.
Previously, when we did rent, I had no problem renting, but also, no one was threatening to make the DVD go *poof* if I didn't finish the movie in 24 hours.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
The 24 hr thing is like PayPerView, where you can watch the movie as many times as you want over 24 hours. But somewhat cheaper.
I don't rent that much, but when I do I usually just watch it once....

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Incidentally, Netflix has lifted limits on online movie streaming for all plans except the very cheapest, I think. But there are probably still compatibility issues with non-Windows systems.

Oh, and there should be a *poof* sound effect when it happens. Preceded by a synthesized female voice saying, Warning - movie poofage commencing in five minutes.

I don't have IE handy to test, but it looks like on the lines where you don't have a bullet, you're missing the final semicolon in your style attribute -- instead of list-style:none; you have list-style:none
Thanks for the suggestion, but nope, that's not it. Besides, the problem is that NOTHING is appearing with a bullet.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Damn. I kind of want an Apple TV now.
Too bad I've given up shopping for 2008.

Well, it's even cheaper than it used to be?
